California is also one of the states being sued [0]. You obviously don't know much about Atlanta but seem to know a lot about Georgia by browsing wkikipedia. Our LGBT community is one of the largest in the US.

California probably has more backwards people than Georgia fighting against stuff like this.

Because our population is 4 times larger.

That's a peculiar reply. Like it's ok to have bigots, as long as there's lots of them?

No, but even if California's BPC (Bigot Per Capita) was half of Georgia's, we would still have twice as many Bigots as Georgia.

Your response comes off aggressive, and I think that detracts from the validity of your comment.

Does shutting down nonsense posts really require perfect civility in the reply?

It's the same pattern I see often here... made up story incoming. The original person who spouts nonsense is never hold to account, especially if what they're saying fits with the status quo.

Person1: Trump is literally a lizard person!

> Person2: You're an idiot, and here are some facts that show he's not.

> > Person3: Whoa whoa, you're probably right but be civil!

If you want to see aggressive comments check out Reddit or YouTube.

It was not my intention. The parent did a quick Wikipedia search and came to the conclusion all of Georgia hates LGBT, better not move there. It's offensive to me as a native.

That's irrational. The comment's validity is logically unrelated to how aggressively it was delivered.
